| Justification | The GOLD ontology was developed as part of the E-MELD project
funded by the NSF (BCS0729644 and BCS0094934). The concepts were reviewed by 50
noted typologists and documentary linguists at the E-MELD 2005 workshop
(http://emeld.org/workshop/2005/proceeding.html) at Harvard University. They
have since been refined by the GOLD Community
(http://linguistics-ontology.org). |
